Full Show Friday: The Pogues In Paris 30th Anniversary Concert

We search the murky back waters of youtube to find full concerts and post them to the site weekly, come back every seven days to help us celebrate Full Show Friday's.
These shows are of varying quality and may not be here for long so
enjoy them while you can...As always, please support the artist every
which way, but especially by seeing them live (if they are still
playing)...This week...The Pogues!

Sure St Paddy's was Monday but we will keep it going. While this is just the first half of the show, it marks a special time, The Pogues 30th Anniversary Tour, we were lucky enough to catch the band a few times before this in NYC and we gotta say we think (with drunk ears) that Shane sounded better then he does here, MacGowan is in rough shape. This show is tough on the old drunk bastard, but the band sounds in top form so we will let them play us out of the Green Season and sing along with all the words...helping the old toothless pirate along....
